M. C. A. coun cil Monday night on the subject "Ath letic Relations Between Carolina and Clemson." Mr. Woodward made all state two years, played basketball, and also took an active interest in campus activities while he was at Clemson. The address to the council came at a very appropriate time, only three days before the annual Carolina-Clemson game. In a very interesting and straight forward manner he recounted the historical events in the relationship between the two schools, and remarked that the present feeling that existed between the insti tutions is the best since the first game was played in 1897. "Around the year 1903," Mr. Wood ward pointed out, "the Carolina-Clemson riot occurred and relationship was dis continued for a period of five years. Al though things went along pretty smooth after relationship was resumed, the feel ing of animosity prevailed for a great many years." The speaker urged the students to ex hibit the college spirit at the game, but to refrain fr,.., engaging in any conduct that might erlgender hard feelings. "A great deal of the trouble at football games is started by drunks," he said. And then the ex-captain pointed out the usefulness of a good clean college spirit. "Spirit is the ounly thing that will win a game. Get a solid group behind the team so that the players can hear the cheers rolling down from the grandstand, and that team is going places." The officers of the council were in augurated last week, and a splendid pro gram has been outlined. In a contest which will last through the first semester the two sides which have been chosen will seek to acquire the greatest number of points through recreational tourna ments, taking part on programs, and orig inal projects conceived on the individual sides. The loser is going to treat the winner to a supper. Through the fine cooperation of the Physical Education Department, members of the council will gather in the Gym nasium each Friday night where they will be taught the fundamentals of boxing by Bill Humphlett, captain of last year's boxing team and winner of the Gittman Medal wvhich is given for excellence in scientific boxing, and Joe Cardwell, let terman and member of the varsity box ing team. Instruction in weights and wrestling wvill be given by Newt Harmon; fencing by Laurier O'Ferrall, Georgia Tech grad uate wvho has two letters; handball by Frank Bradley; and basketball by Ed Sal lenger. Morse Pleads For Freedom Dr. Josiah Morse, professor of Philos ophy at the University, is the author of "Let Us H-ave Liberty," an article ap pearing in the last issue of The EIeusris, monthly publication of the Clhi Omega sorority. "Civilization," Dr. Morse pointed out in the article, "calls for freedom-f ree :lom to the uttermost. Freedom to in vestigate and examine, freedom to be critical and skeptical, to challenge ac cepted views and instittutions, to experi ment and change-in short, freedom to learn and freedom to teach. Not that which is temporal and local merely, but that which is eternal and universal. "Truth is neutral, universal, and eter nal," Dr. Morse declared, "and will pre vail though nation after nation try to dlestroy it. They doom themselves to de struction who try to destroy it. This should be inscribed on our gate-posts and bound on our arms and as frontlets be tweeni our eyes: 'they doom themselves to destruction who contend against truth.'

Modern Tren By RICHARD C PART 4 Forerunners of the Socialized System Socialized medicine already exists, in one form or another, the world over. In Soviet Russia is an excellent example of the system on a, nation-wide scale and, naturally, it works. It exists, also, in other nations on.a less general scale. In America advances in that direction are manifested in the departments of health and the Army and Navy institutions. It exists in many corporations supplying medical service to employees. It exists in medical care furnished thru relief funds. It exists in hospitals owned by the pub lic and supported by taxation. The principle of socialization is found both here and abroad in many other ser vices conducted for the welfare of the people such as public education, postal service, water supply, recreation parks and playgrounds, etc. There is a small town in Canada which found, over 15 years ago, that no doc tor would stay within its boundaries be cause the fees collected were not suf ficient to support one decently. But they had to have medical attention. In the end they assessed each of the 180 families re siding in the vicinity the small amount )f $10 per year. They then invited a doctor and assured him a salary of $1800 a year. One accepted, and the commu nity has had no trouble on that score since. There are many other similar cases. What the Doctors Think In a compilation of reasons both for and against Socialization compiled by Julia E. Johnsen for The Reference Shelf, the negative reasons upon logical examination seem to have no force at all. They are obviously evidence that the av erage doctor, the plodding, sincere, over worked servant of society has no time to think. The reasons, if really his, must iave been flung out hurriedly during brief breathing spells, unsupported by clear forethought, and designed solely to sat isfy his questioners so that they would leave him to his omnipresent task of liagnosing and prescribing. Another apparent reason for the ex istence of these opinions is that they are the self-preservative attempts of suc ressful. aggressive members of the pro fession who seeks to preserve their foun tain of wealth. I-Iowever, their protests are astonishingly weak. At best, they are ineffectual and illogical attempts by hon est, sincere men who are by nature (as are the majority of people) apprehensive of any change in the social order. Fully a third of the reasons presented appar ently can be construed in no other way than as reasons in the opposite direction -for Socialization. Below are several of these reasons, chosen at random, and neg ative in intent, with comments directed toward their fallacies. 1. "Much preventive and therapeutic work exists." - Much, yes. But not enough. 2. "The medical system as such is not responsible for thec absence of medical care in a nu~mber of cases, but thec real reason is thec people's igniorance of proper mnea.sures to be sought."-Exactly. Com pulsory examination would banish results from those causes. 3. "Adequate remnuneration for doc fors is justified by long and e.rpen&sive ed ucation, /high degree of skill, necessary standards of living, etc."-Correct. But hoes the new idiea seek to lower the in comes of doctors? Rather it hopes to raise and assure them. 4. "There is no reason why t/hose pa tients who can pay for treatment s/hould iot pay."-Sound reasoning. A major part of the plan is compulsory payment f just fees by those who are able. 5. "The government /has othecr essen A ,COLLEGE PR4 Invented this Mira to Guard All Stud., from Pens that Suddenly A Wisconsin professor discovered~ often it wasn't students' brains but pens that ran dry-caused failur classes and exams.

STATE B04 baVVVi1 ds In Science ARLINGTON tial expenses in connection with sickness and health, without assuming this addi tional cost."-The cost of medical care is at present unevenly distributed among the people. The people constitute the gov ernment. Government ownership would mean just and equal distribution of ex pense. 6. "There is no reason for singling out medical service alone for socializa tion; it is unfair."-Positive inanity I In the first place, medicine would not remain alone socialized. Refer to the first para graph of this article. As for the phrase "it is unfair," Socialization will be an aid to all medicine as well as to all citizenry. Is it unfair to help? Medicine should be the favorite child of the state! 7. "A socialized system of medicine is only one phase of an enormous program for social security."-And what is wrong with social security? Can that be unde sirable? 8. "Incentives to do good work would be removed."-Why? The doctors' love of medical science and its application to human service should be sufficient spur. Liberation from economic tramples should give them increased incentive for pains taking work, and rewards and promotions would go to those who give outstanding service. 9. "The old relation of doctor and pa tient would be destroyed."-Nonsense! Personal relationship exists less widely today than is commonly assumed. It does not exist to any appreciable extent un der specialism and group practice. It cannot exist for those who cannot afford to pay, and therefore cannot chose phy sicians, nor does it exist generally in wards and clinics. Finally, it does not exist for those who consult physicians casually or choose them by chance. Be sides, personal relationship under the present system has few essential values that could not equally exist under a proper system of socialization. 10. "Medical progress would be ob structed."-Why? With more time and equipment for research purposes and with a highly coordinated organization, medical progress should advance more rapidly and more efficiently. 11. "The profession would lose its at traction for the best mnen."-Because of the sacrifice of the "big money" opportu nities? Then those are not the best men. Medicine's doors would be flung open to many worthy devotees who could not otherwise afford the training. 12. "Socialit.ed medicine would tend to greatly increase the number of fad dists, quacks, etc."-It would stamp out their existence. 13. "Rich areas would be taxed to pay for poor ones."-Society buys the medical care for the poor at present, but with unequal and unjust distribution of the burden. The Socialization of Medicine is for the doctor and for the people. Only the rich and selfish could object from that point of viewv, and they should n't, anywvay. It wvould cost them no more ult imately. ---. 3. 0. Selden Society Learns New Men First Meeting Holding its first meeting of the year last \Vednesday, the the newly-organized Selden Society, a group devoted to re search in the history of law in South Carolina, acquainted it's new members with the purposes of the society. The history of the society and of its organization at the University last year wvere described by J. Nelson Frierson, dean of the Law School.

They were: E. M. Holland, Simpsonville; Maxay Harrelson, Mul lins; Alvin Reyner, Columbia; and Albert Green, Andrews. The follow ing were elected into membership: Melvin Levkoff, Columbia; Max Fus kott, Florence; Cecil Snyder, George town; Carl Dove, Dillon; and Paul Ayres, Calhoun Falls. At this meeting an impromptu dis cussion of the New Deal resulted in Richard Foster, who temporarily re linquished the president's chair to Har per Welborne, leading the affirmative argument and L. Edwin Sims, the negative. Foster praised the administration for its work in bringing the nation safely out of the near chaotic state that existed in 1932. He likened President Roosevelt to the captain of a ship who is held in high esteem while guiding his vessel through a storm, but is forgotten when safety returns. "The thing we are asked to approve in to tonight is the New Deal," Sims harangued in his usual picturesque style. "It has .'been lauded to the skies, and the statement has been made that capitalism has been put down by the working people. They praised the defunct N. R. A., but forgot to say that it was instigated by the tool of the capitalist, Bernard M. Baruch, and others of his caliber." He continued a heated protest against the present governmental policies, pointing out that "if you wanted to buy a Rhode Island Red pullet for dinner and a Dominecker rooster comes out of the coop first, you take him or nothing, according to rules of the alphabetical farm agencies." The society as a whole took no definite action on the question An invitation from the Euphradians to attend an address by Mr. Douglas McKay, Columbia Attorney, last night was accepted.
